HER SERIES-
UNLEASH YOUR INNER GODDESS
4-Part All-Women’s Movement Series
with OLGA HUBYCH
Four Friday evenings this summer, James Island Yoga is opening a space just for women —
to breathe, move, and come home to the body. Each session blends breathwork, guided dance meditation,
and embodiment practice, moving us from the hips, to the arms, to the legs, to the heart.
No dance experience required. No judgment. Just you, and the women beside you.
When: Fridays- July 10, July 24th, Aug 7th & Aug 14th
6:30–8:30pm
Where: James Island Yoga
Investment: $45 per session or $140 for the full series
Bring a yoga mat, water, and an eye mask if you have one.
Dress as if it’s the most exciting date you have all summer — because it is.
Your date with your inner goddess.
1 — Her Hips Don’t Lie
Friday, July 10 | 6:30–8:30pm
Dive into a beautiful, feminine field of movement in this all-women’s workshop. Fall in love with your hips as we blend breath, guided dance meditation, and juicy hip technique to melt stress and brighten your day. You’ll learn playful yet practical moves you can take home and weave into your daily routine, so the magic stays with you long after the session ends.
Unleash your inner goddess as you learn to hip bump, sway, circle, and figure-8 your way to stress-freedom. Drop into your body, sweeten your field, and leave feeling grounded, glowing, and deeply in love with your hips.
2 — In Her Arms
Friday, July 24 | 6:30–8:30pm
An all-women’s workshop exploring the power of our palms, arms, hands, and wrists — the power of healing, the power of touch, the power of expression. We’ll move through sensual, strong arm and hand pathways to express ourselves, set boundaries, be seen, and move together in community, so you feel supported, witnessed, and celebrated.
Unleash your inner goddess — the one who loves every inch of her body, takes space without asking, and moves with fearless grace, celebrating her power and presence.
3 — Step Into Her Power
Friday, August 7 | 6:30–8:30pm
An all-women’s workshop that awakens confidence through breath, steps, and dance. We’ll begin with breathwork and a grounding walking meditation to drop from overthinking into your body. You’ll practice confident walking — alignment, balance, pace, and presence — and explore leg pathways, weight shifts, and simple sequences that build strength, grace, and sensual self-expression. We’ll work in pairs to cultivate trust and connection.
Unleash your inner goddess — the one who walks this life with unwavering self-trust, knowing deep in her core that the world is hers to shape. This is your invitation to claim that potency, celebrate every curve and contour, and rise with grace, courage, and joy.
4 — Her Soul, Her Heart, Her Home
Friday, August 14 | 6:30–8:30pm
An all-women’s workshop to get out of your head and back into your body. We’ll blend guided meditation, breathwork, and dance to wake up your sensual energy and melt tension. You’ll learn fluid head, neck, and hair pathways, chest circles, and full-body waves that switch on your natural magnetism and make your body feel like home again — smooth, confident, effortless. Surrounded by women, we’ll celebrate love in our own way: dancing, moving, feeling ourselves, sliding into a feminine wave flow so you feel safe to be seen, fully in yourself, and undeniably you.
Unleash your inner goddess — the one who feels deeply and expresses it, the one whose heart leads instead of her mind, the one who knows she is light and is here to share it.
*Every session: No dance experience needed. Bring a yoga mat, water, and an eye mask if you have one. Come as you are
